Hi All, I have just setup a mobile gateway on our nagios box (6310i with serial lead ;-). Got all the SMS stuff working using gnokii which works a treat. Recommend it to anyone. However, when I try and get nagios to use a new notify routine it fails to send the text. Debug so far. Got gnokii to send SMS direct. Added notify-by-sms to misccommands.cfg. I know the above works as I then cut the command from the .cfg and run it from the command line direct and it works. Could this be a permissions thing associated with the nagios user??? When I force a host down and look in the syslog the notification does try and send via the correct command, it seems like just the command from within nagios is not working. Hope someone can help. Regards Jason This is the command line. /usr/bin/printf "%b" "**Nagios**\nType: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo: $OUTPUT$\nDate/Time: $DATETIME$\n" | /usr/local/bin/gnokii --sendsms $CONTACTPAGERS$ ********************************************************************** This message is confidential.
